Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, yo
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yo)
Yo, where you at, ****?
You seen my brother?
You seen my brother, ****? (Hey)
Yo
[Verse 1]
Born in a closet with her clothes still on
Smothered in the sea of her pants
You know I didn't catch a brick till the lights came on
But by then, I had nothing left
By then, I had nothing
[Chorus]
I was born as a second child
All I got was hand-me-downs
All that is is what was left
Born as a second child
All I got was hand-me-downs
All that is what was left
[Verse 2]
Seems like I live my life half-dead
You know the ghetto ain't helpin' it none
Ghetto ain't helpin' it none
I'm a second-class citizen spawned from king
But who can spot that nation now?
Who can spot that nation now?
Who can spot that nation now?
Who can spot that nation now?
After years of livin' underground
[Chorus]
I was born as a second child
All I got was hand-me-downs
All that is is what was left
Born as a second child
All I got was hand-me-downs
All that is what was left
[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah
Yo, ****, where you at?
Four-hundred years, four-hundred years of a culture
Fuck that, yo, get that ****, get that ****
Yo, there he go, get him, get him
I'm a second-class citizen spawned from king
Who can spot that nation? Tryna find my nation
I'm tryna find my nation
Tryna find my nation
Yo, I said, tryna spot my nation
Tryna find my nation, my nation
[Chorus]
I was born as a second child
All I got was hand-me-downs
All that is is what was left
Born as a second child
What? What? What? What?
All I got was hand-me-downs
All that is is what was left
[Verse 3]
This for my ****
Yo, this for my ****, yo, yo, stand there, ****
I'ma get you, motherfucker, no, move, ****, I'ma fuck you up
What the fuck you doin', ****? You shot the wall
No, fuck that, stay down, ****
Stay down, ****
Die, ****, die, ****, die
[Bridge]
Second, second, yeah, yeah
Second child, oh (Yo, yo, yo)
Where you at?
Tryna find my, tryna find my nation
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, yeah
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Second child, second child
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Second child
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Second child, second child
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Second child, second child
[Outro]
Tired, tired
Oh, shit, oh, shit
Tell my mama I love her
No, ****, hear me, man, ah
Get them motherfuckers, man, don't let them motherfuckers live, man
Yo, fuck them ****
Tell my man make sure you get them ****
Oh, man, I'm only twenty-one years old, I'm about to fuckin' die, man
I'm about to die, ah
Yo, man, calm down, ****, calm down
You ain't goin' nowhere, ****, you ain't goin'
Shut the fuck up, ****, you ain't dyin' yet, ****, shut up
Oh, man, man
Shut up, ****, shut—
Yo, where you at, man?
